Our world is heavily dependent on machinery, and cranes, such as those covered in our Boom Truck Safety (CAN) course, have become vital contributors to economic and productivity growth across a range of sectors including construction, mining, logging, maritime, and production facilities.
Mobile cranes, which are the focus of our Boom Truck Safety (CAN) course, are incredibly adaptable machines, used in a variety of tasks, from transferring materials to placing these materials or personnel at significant heights.
